Re: US aircaft types ferried on French carrier Bearn, June 1940?

No, we kept them !

The Bearn arrived at Point-à-Pitre (Martinique) the 27th june, and then, the aircrafts were landed there. They were stocked during 2 years before many (15 H-751, 15 CW-77 and 2 Brewster) were destroyed the 12th may 1942 by a fire.
After that, some "survivors" were sent in 1944 and 1945 to France and French north Africa where they were used.

I hope this answers your question.
